The 60-foot trimaran La Vagabonde navigated 200 nautical miles into the Kinabatangan River in Borneo to explore the region's biodiversity.1:52 The crew, including two adults and two children, anchored in the river for several days to spot wildlife, including crocodiles and various monkey species.4:57 They visited the village of Billet, where they learned that local speakers broadcast swiftlet bird songs to attract birds for nest harvesting.17:56 Navigation ended at a set of low-hanging power lines that prevented further upstream travel toward elephant habitats.22:48 During the transit, the crew managed an engine cooling fan injury sustained by the owner and dealt with a temporary alternator relay failure.2:53 Upon exiting the river toward the Sipadan dive site, the vessel was intercepted by a local police boat, which warned the crew of historical kidnapping risks and piracy concerns in the area.35:58 The crew subsequently transitioned back to open-water sailing.33:50
